How to build your own catenary.

Sorry, but this site is still under construction. It will take a little while, until we have added all the text an photos to this part of our information-desk. Please visit us later.

To have a first taste of what is coming, just click the photo on the left: it shows a typical catenary-part, which could be seen in many Swiss railway stations. Two tracks of the station have been crossed by a traverse, sitting on a short pole on the right, and a long pole on the left. As you can see, there is a third track, which is in front. A separate bracket is placed on the long pole for that. It even carries the 2-phased supply-line and a tensioning pulley. To make this construction secure, the pole is held by a special wire, fixed to the ground. The major pole and the anchor got a concrete-block of bigger dimensions, than the short pole, which only carries a separate signal plate.

All these parts can bought from us - for your own, excellent catenary system. Have much fun with your model-railroad.
